did people stop telling you how wonderful you were and what great potential you had and stop caring if you weren't living up to it?

I just noticed it myself.

People used to tell me how wonderful I was all the time and then I guess I was about 25 or so when it stopped. I started getting all frantic about not getting enough attention and stuff. I'm sure some of you remember. :P

Anyway... it just struck me what might have brought on the change and I was wondering if anyone else experienced the same sort of thing...

So when exactly:

Did that happen to you?

I came from home that severley lacked love and support, so I do not remember it being there for me to miss.

Did you lose your virginity?

When I was 15 to a girl in my school who was also 15

Did you fall in love?

I have never been in love.

Did you break someone's heart?

No. I have never been in a "steady" relationship.


Did you realize how much you didn't know?

when I enlisted into the Army right out of high school. The moment you step off the bus into a controlled chaos I realized how litte I knew.

Did you realize you had to start over?

I don't think I have ever started over. I served 8 years in the Army. Came back home and went to work. It has been a path. Not seperate trips.

Did you lose your way?

Again, I don't think I have ever lost my way. All I have ever wanted to be is employed and be able to provide for myself.

Did you abandon your past?

My past is not something I would want to abandon. I can't hide who I am, or where I have come from without lying, and lying does no good.

Did you stop looking forward and start looking back?

Never. Does no good and is a sign of weakness. To waste time over what might have been is foolish.

Did you lose your first love?

Never had a fist love. I am not wired for love. I enjoy the company of friends and lovers but I do not become attached to anything or anyone. I truly do no believe that love is all that people make it out to be.

Did you give up?

I have never given up on anything that I wanted to do, or given up on living, working and being a productive member of my community.
